To support the
include_digitsandinclude_punctuationflags effectively, thegenerate_passwordfunction should also expose a length parameter to ensure these constraints don't cause conflicts when the requested set of characters is too small. Should the function prioritize meeting the minimum length or strictly adhere to the exclusion flags if the character pool becomes exhausted?jadayaanaliah26 commentedon Oct 21, 2026
If we implement these flags, how should the function handle the case where
lengthis smaller than the sum of required character types to avoidValueErroror an infinite loop?
